Enviro Group
This term we are very excited to have Sue Rine the Enviroschools Coordinator working with us every Thursday from 1.30 to 3.00 pm. Sue is working through a series of lessons around identifying and creating good soil in our gardens with the surprising name of “Soil your Undies”. Last week Sue joined us to bury 4 pairs of cotton underpants to find the best soil around the school. In about 8 weeks we will dig them up to find which pair of underpants has the most holes. Lots of holes will indicate good soil; microbes, insects, moisture and fungi all show good soil presence. This week we are looking at the structure and profile of good soil.
Envirogroup don’t forget to bring your gumboots and change of clothes each Thursday. Perhaps a rain jacket too.
